ZEFFIRINO

Zeffirino is one of our iconic Heritage Brands. Created in 1939, the concept offers an Italian experience, that has already been enjoyed by celebrities including Frank Sinatra and Pope Francis over the past five decades.

The concept has already started expanding outside of Italy, with restaurants in Paris and Monaco.

THE ORIGIN

In 1918 in Modena, the Bellonis opened their first restaurant named Trattoria Emiliano. Then Zeffirino began his journey into the culinary world in Genoa.
With the intense passion and desire to leave a legacy, the now famous Ristorante Zeffirino opened in 1939, on one of the most glamorous streets in the center of Genoa.

THE ARCHITECTURE

The moment you step into Zeffirino, you’ll be transported in an authentic Italian restaurant inspired by the history of the Zeffirino family and the warmth of Italian hospitality. Combining light almond green, wood and golden hues, Zeffirino is a delightful gem.
